AMALEK, THE ENEMY OF ISRAEL!

AMALEK, THE ENEMY OF ISRAEL!
Is it possible for us to determine if Amalek is still around today?  And if so, who are his descendants, how can we identify them and what will be their role in the end-times prophecies?  Are they around us, physically and spiritually?  This is extremely important!!

Deu 25:17-19 "Remember what Amalek did to you along the way when you came out from Egypt, 18 how he met you along the way and attacked among you all the stragglers at your rear when you were faint and weary; and he did not fear Elohim. 19 "Therefore it shall come about when YHVH your God has given you rest from all your surrounding enemies, in the land which YHVH your God gives you as an inheritance to possess, you shall blot out the memory of Amalek from under heaven; you must not forget.
Our sages and rabbis identify Amalek as the persistent/constant enemy of Israel throughout biblical and modern history. We must recognize that Amalek’s descendants are Israel’s eternal enemy. Therefore, how can we follow the Amalekites down through the ages even to the present day?
Possible through two different perspectives:
1.      One is genetic:
           1, Amalek's genealogy extending down to the present day
  1. Metaphoric or symbolic
We can, to a certain extent trace Amalek’s bloodline in biblical history and beyond even to the last great future battle in Israel, coming in the last days.  We see Amalek standing as Israel’s perpetual enemy first in Gen.36: 12 and 16.

Gen 36:12 & 16 And Timna was concubine to Eliphaz Esau's son; and she bare to Eliphaz Amalek: these were the sons of Adah Esau's wife.  V.16:  chief Korah, chief Gatam, chief Amalek: these are the chiefs that came of Eliphaz in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Adah. (Chiefs are tribal leaders of a clan)

Note:  leader of a clan is aluf
Amalek was the grandson of Esau/Edom, so you can see how the two names and the names of their descendants become synonymous. Verse eight (8) in these passages declares that Esau is Edom.  (Gen 36:8 “and Esau dwelt in mount Seir: Esau is Edom.)

Historically we can trace Esau’s seeds (descendants) to several other nations, including the Amalekites and beyond. Esau’s descendants are still alive today and are active participants in the unfolding of YHVH’s great plan. We know this from Malachi, the last writer in the Tanach that opens his prophecy with a clear indication that Edom will be a major player in the days of Israel’s final regathering.  Let’s read his opening words and we will later see how Amalek figures in these events.

 Mal 1:1 “The burden (prophecy) of the word of YHVH to Israel by Malachi.”

Burden  H4853  משּׂא  - maśśâ' (mas-saw')   a burden; figuratively an utterance, a doom, especially carry away, prophecy  Español:  una carga; en sentido figurado una elocución, principalmente un destino, especialmente llevar lejos, profecía.

Mal 1:2-5  I have loved you, saith YHVH. Yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother? saith YHVH: yet I loved Jacob,3  And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness.:4  Whereas Edom saith, We are impoverished, but we will return and build the desolate places; thus saith YHVH of hosts, They shall build, but I will throw down; and they shall call them, the border of wickedness, and, The people against whom YHVH indignation for ever.

Hated (aborrecer)  H8130   שׂנא  śânê' (saw-nay')  to hate (personally),  enemy, utterly hated, despise

5  And your eyes shall see, and ye shall say, YHVH will be magnified from the border of Israel.
The clear word of YHVH Elohim tells us that Edom/Amalek is doomed. It also tells us that Edom will claim ownership of the “Promised Land.” The Scriptures tell us that YHVH will allow the situation to progress until He crushes them. In the midst of this drama, it is extremely important to see how Amalek is singled out as the major troublemaker.

In Exodus 17, we again encounter the tribal Amalek. The scriptures paint him as a wily, ruthless, unscrupulous and corrupt individual. [Las escrituras lo pintan como un individuo astuto, despiadado, sin escrúpulos y corrupto.]

This intense hatred of Israel was brought about by the feud between Jacob and Esau and was no doubt passed from Esau to his grandson Amalek, and from there transferred to Esau’s descendants down through history.  Exodus 17 plainly shows that the Amalekites lacked courage and did not possess much fighting skill. They attacked defenseless women, children and the elderly in the rear of the Israeli vanguard. They specialized in hit and run warfare attacking on the weak and the stragglers [rezagados].  A very coward way of fighting! Who is the one that constantly attacks us when we are weak physically and spiritually?

We see that they harassed Israel continually and Moshe, in addressing Joshua his successor, instructed him to destroy Amalek. In Exodus 17:13-16 we read:

Exo 17:13-16  Thus Joshua defeated `Amalek, putting their people to the sword. 14  Adonai said to Moshe, "Write this in a book to be remembered, and tell it to Joshua: I will completely blot out any memory of `Amalek from under heaven." 15  Moshe built an altar, called it YHVH Nissi [YHVH is my banner/miracle - estandarte], 16  and said, "Because their hand was against the throne of YHVH.  YHVH will wage war against Amalek generation after generation."

Verse 16: Español:  dijo: Por cuanto Amalek levantó la mano sobre el trono de YHVH, YHVH tendrá guerra con Amalek de generación en generación.

The hand of Amalek, "is against the throne of Elohim, against His people, whom He rules, therefore he is against YHVH Himself, and the glory of His majesty.  Amalek was the first that made war upon Israel, when YHVH brought them out of Egypt, and unprovoked fell upon their rear, and smote the hindmost, faint and weary among them: therefore  YHVH will have war with Amalek from generation to generation; until they are utterly destroyed;
In this Scripture, we see that the battle lines are drawn, and the reality that Amalek would perpetually battle Israel. Here also, we see firmly established in the pages of Scripture that in the future, YHVH NISSI will fight for Israel in its final battle against Amalek.

Balaam:
Now, let’s go to the time of Balaam’s prophecy where the Amalekites are seen as agitators and instigators. The king of Moab paid Balaam a large sum of money to curse Israel, but Balaam under the power of the Ruach HaKodesh blessed Israel instead, and in the process, he also uttered a prophecy concerning Amalek

Numbers 24:20 we read:  “And when he looked on Amalek, he took up his parable, and said, Amalek was the first of the nations; but his latter end shall be that he perish forever.”
This phrase “the first of the nations” meaning that Amalek was the first to attack Israel. In addition, the word here for nations is goyim, the Hebrew word for gentiles,  meaning those nations not in covenant relationship with YHVH Elohim.  So this tells us that Amalek is the first gentile nation in a long list of gentile powers that would position themselves against Israel. Amalek and his descendants being the leading aggressors!

 Deu 19 …you shall blot out the memory of Amalek from under heaven; you must not forget.”

Forget:  H7911    שׁכח     shâkach: bring to  memory or attention: -  cause to remember

Joshua unfortunately did not carry out this directive to destroy all the Amalekites, and in the days of Israel’s king’s, King Saul also failed because of greed. The prophet Samuel brought a message from YHVH to Saul commanding him to wipe out all the Amalekites.  In 1 Samuel 15:3 we read:

1Sa 15:2-3  Here is what YHVH-Tzva'ot says: 'I remember what `Amalek did to Israel, how they fought against Israel when they were coming up from Egypt. 3  Now go and attack `Amalek, and completely destroy everything they have. Don't spare them, but kill men and women, children and babies, cows and sheep, camels and donkeys.'

This was a strong and direct command from YHVH to totally eradicate this race from the face of the earth!!  This terrible command was to spare Israel of centuries of agony at the hands of the Amalekites.
The Amalekites were a decadent, corrupted society given to the worship of fertility gods, and were so very involved in religious sexual rites that, virtually, the entire population was infected with venereal diseases. They were not only evil, treacherous aggressors, [agresores traidores],  a source of false worship, but a major carrier of diseases, an extremely sinful people.

YHVH’s command was clearly stated, yet Saul failed to execute the responsibility placed upon him therefore He took the kingdom away from him. Saul had kept the cattle and goods that he was supposed to destroy, and he allowed the Amalekite King Agag and his children to live contrary to YHVH’s command. Samuel later killed Agag, but the children escaped to live on to plague King David during his reign.

Now in Scriptures’ timeline we come to Esther and here we see that Haman, was identified as an Amalekite as confirmed by this scripture:

Esther 3:1  After these things did king Ahasuerus (Greeks called him Exerxes) promote Haman the son of Hammedatha the Agagite, and advanced him, and set his seat above all the princes that were with him.

 Here Haman is called an Agagite, a descendant of King Agag. He is a descendent of King Agag, the Amalekite.

The ancient Jewish sages  report that the line of Amalek lived on after Haman and that the Amalekite descendant’s not only migrated throughout the middle east, but also migrated north through Persia and into Russia.  A commentary made in the Artscroll series on Ezekiel, teaches that Gog the ruler of Russia, in Ezekiel 38, to be against Israel in the last days, is an Edomite and/or Amalekite.
ISAACS BLESSINGS TO JACOB AND ESAU:

Isaac’s  blessings to Ya’akov was: “ May peoples serve you, and nations bow down to you; Be master of your brothers, and may your mother's sons bow down to you. Cursed be those who curse you, and blessed be those who bless you." (Gen.27:29)

To Esau was: "By your sword you shall live, and your brother you shall serve; But it shall come about when you become restless, that you will break his yoke from your neck."  (Gen 27:40 )

Yoke:  H5923 על  ol – as imposed on the neck, from H5953d; עלל : alal a prim. root; to insert, thrust in,
Like Ishmael (Gen. 17:20; 21:13), Esau received a blessing that is great, however inferior to Jacob, his younger brother. This prophecy of Esau’s “breaking free” from subjugation to Jacob may be connected to Edom’s successful rebellions in the 9th & 8th century (2 Kings 8:20-22; 2 Chron. 28:17) because he refused to be under his younger brother.  Notice that here the word “brother” is in singular:

Brother: H251 אח – ach:  a brother,  brethren, kindred, brother’s kindred, descendants

In Gen 27:41 we read:  “So Esau bore a grudge against Jacob because of the blessing with which his father had blessed him; and Esau said to himself, "The days of mourning for my father are near; then I will kill my brother Jacob.”

Who is Esau’s brother today?  The Jewish nation - Israel

Jewish commentaries expressed another dimension to Edom that places it at the center of world history as it develops today. Edom is the last and most vicious of the nations named in Scripture:  Babylon, Medo-Persia, Greece and Rome.  Judaism has taught for hundreds of years  that Esau, Edom, Amalek, Agag, Seir and Idumea are all the same people today: they are Rome. Rome destroyed the last Temple of Israel and we read in Daniel 9:6 that the “prince who shall come is a descendant from the people who destroyed the Second Temple” and that means Rome. Herod was an Idumean, a descendant of Esau/Edom and when the Temple was destroyed in 70 CE Edom then disappeared  into Rome. 

In Midrash literature, Gog, so prominent in the Ezekiel 38 war is often referred to as Armilus, which is a variant of Romulus, founder of Rome.  In Obadiah, the prophet predicts that Edom will be brought down at the time of the “day of the YHVH.”  It reads:

Oba 1:1 & 4  The vision of Obadiah. Thus says the YHVH Elohim concerning Edom-- We have heard a report from YHVH, And an envoy has been sent among the nations saying, "Arise and let us go against her for battle"-  Oba 1:4  "Though you build high like the eagle, though you set your nest among the stars, from there I will bring you down," declares YHVH.

Oba 1:6-8  "O how Esau will be ransacked, and his hidden treasures searched out! 7  "All the men allied with you will send you forth to the border, and the men at peace with you will deceive you and overpower you. They who eat your bread will set an ambush for you. (There is no understanding in him.) 8  "Will I not on that day," declares YHVH, "Destroy wise men from Edom and understanding from the mountain of Esau?

Interestingly, those nations associated with Esau/ Edom/Amalek employed the eagle as their national symbol as Obadiah identified Edom. The Idumean descendants of Esau/Amalek’s symbol was also an eagle as was the symbol of The Holy Roman Empire, The Hapsburgs, The Third Reich and other western powers including the United States, that also use the symbol of the eagle!

The Scripture further confirms that Esau/ Edom and Amalek will be cursed with the same curse that they wished upon Israel, and Israel will receive all the land YHVH promised to them; the land that Edom has coveted for so long. This has not come true to this day but be assured it shall!!
Oba. 1:10 "Because of violence to your brother Jacob, You will be covered with shame, and you will be cut off forever.”
 Oba 1:16 -18  For just as you have drunk on my holy mountain, so will all the nations drink in turn; yes, they will drink and gulp it down and be as if they had never existed.  17 But on Mount Tziyon there will be a holy remnant who will escape, and the house of Ya`akov will repossess their rightful inheritance. 18  The house of Ya`akov will be fire and the house of Yosef a flame, setting aflame and consuming the a stubble which is the house of `Esav. None of the house of `Esav will remain, for YHVH has spoken.

One further observation we must note is that Russia and Iran in Ezekiel’s prophecy are Japhetic nation’s, however we must not forget that Haman was not a Persian, yet he instigated the destruction of the Jews using that Japhetic nation and it’s King, as his vehicle for the destruction of the Jews. The rabbis teach that the leaders of these nations will be the descendants of Esau/ Edom/Amalek, but the forces employed will be Japhetic in origin.  Who was Japheth?  Gen 6:10  Noah became the father of three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.]

His Descendants (14 Nations came out of Japheth): 

The immediate descendants of Japheth were seven in number, and are represented by the nations designated Gomer, Magog, Madai, Javan, Tubal, Mesech, and Tiras; or, roughly, the Armenians, Lydians, Medes, Greeks, Tibarenians, and Moschians, the last, Tiras, remaining still obscure. The sons of Gomer (Ashkenaz, Riphath and Togarmah) were all settled in the West Asian tract; while the sons of Javan (Elisah, Tarshish, Kittim and Dodanim or Rodanim) occupied the Mediterranean coast and the adjacent islands.

Interesting to note Japheth’s place among the sons of Noah:

In Genesis 9:27, as in other passages, Japheth occupy the 3rd place in the enumeration of the sons of Noah, but he is really regarded as the 2nd son, Ham being the youngest.   I bring this note on Japheth for us to begin to understand and/or identify who will be the “players” in end-times prophecy.
In our own time, we saw Hitler, who was an Austrian and not even a German citizen rise to power and rule the Third Reich. Therefore, it should not be a surprise, that the opinion of the sages is that the kings mentioned in Ezekiel will be Esau-Edom-Amalekite, but the fighting forces will be largely Japhetic.

In the B’rit Hadashag Esau’s descendants  are the children of the evil twin who disdained and sold his birthright for a bowl of lintels. In Romans 9: 10 – 13, Sha’ul writes concerning the seed of Abraham and Isaac. It reads:  Rom 9:10-13  And not only this; but when Rebecca also had conceived by one, even by our father Isaac; 11  (For the children being not yet born, neither having done any good or evil, that the purpose of YHVH according to election might stand, not of works, but of him that calleth;) Rom 9:12  It was said unto her, the elder shall serve the younger. 13  As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.

To Jacob, Isaac gave the covenant of Abraham and the promises of final rule over the nations. To Esau he prophesied a life lived by the sword and hatred. For literally thousands of years, Isaac’s prophecies have held true as we see even today in Israel.

Interesting to note that according to sources and Jewish scholars, they testify that the current Rome is Esau/Amalek.  Constantine in the spirit of Amalek ruled out Torah and its commandments.  Then it was the papacy of Rome who continued the legacy of Constantine.   Rome is the city of Amalek.  Rome has its own temple ~ the Vatican ~ and his own pagan god “Iesus” and a number of  'saints'  that are nothing but multiple pagan gods.  Rome does not obey the rules of YHVH and hates the people of Elohim.  Through Rome and their customs, Amalek is still misleading and attacking "the stragglers and the weak" of the true Word of YHVH.

Esau is an exposed book. Scripture paints him as vain, cruel, selfish, jealous,  rebellious and a war monger. He is driven by pride and the desire to build a kingdom of his own, to be his own god. As we have learned, if ancient Jewish prophecy is correct, the world power, the epitome of evil, the avowed enemy of Israel will be the revived Roman Empire, and that is none other than Edom. At its head will be the ultimate personification of evil the Anti-Messiah. He will be evil personified who will attempt to destroy the Jews once again. In closing, we should consider that Amalek’s offspring exhibit the preeminent expression of Esau, “the destruction of the Jews.” Know those that call for the destruction of Jews to be at least, if not Amalekites, then of the spirit of Edom, led by HaSatan. 
I certainly believe that the descendants of  Edom/Amalek are now playing a very important role in the end time prophecies. 

Note that Esau/Edom epitomizes evil and betrayal:  Ps.137:7 Psa 137:7  Remember, O YHVH, against the sons of Edom The day of Jerusalem, Who said, "Raze it, raze it To its very foundation." (See also: Jer. 49:7-2;  Obad. 1:9)  Isa 34:5  For My sword is satiated in heaven, behold it shall descend for judgment upon Edom And upon the people whom I have devoted to destruction.


Edom and the Edomites are mentioned some 130 times in the Bible.   When the Israelites came through the wilderness to the Promised Land in the time of Moses, the Edomites refused them passage through their land (Numbers 20:21). This was a source of great discouragement for the nation (Numbers 21:4).

Even so, God commanded special regard for the Edomites among Israel: You shall not abhor an Edomite, for he is your brother (Deuteronomy 23:7).  Yet He commanded to “destroy the descendants”  of his grandson Amalek.

In the days of Saul, Edom was made subject to Israel (1 Samuel 14:47), and David established garrisons there (2 Samuel 8:14). But later, in the days of Joram, the son of Ahab, the Edomites became independent of Israel (2 Kings 8:16-22).

Several of the prophets spoke about and against Edom, including Jeremiah (Jeremiah 49:17-18) and Ezekiel (Ezekiel 25:12-14).

Jer 49:17  "Edom will become an object of horror; everyone who passes by it will be horrified and will hiss at all its wounds.

Eze 25:12 -14 'Thus says YHVH Elohin, "Because Edom has acted against the house of Judah by taking vengeance, and has incurred grievous guilt, and avenged themselves upon them,"  13  therefore thus says YHVH Elohim , "I will also stretch out My hand against Edom and cut off man and beast from it. And I will lay it waste; from Teman even to Dedan they will fall by the sword. 14  "I will lay My vengeance on Edom by the hand of My people Israel. Therefore, they will act in Edom according to My anger and according to My wrath; thus they will know My vengeance," declares YHVH Elohim . 15  'Thus says YHVH Elohim , "Because the Philistines have acted in revenge and have taken vengeance with scorn of soul to destroy with everlasting enmity,"

EDOM/AMALEK LATER ON IN HISTORY

Herod the Great - the one who tried to kill the young child Yahshua - was an Edomite. From the time Islam conquered the Middle East, the region has been virtually unoccupied, except for a few Bedouins and military outposts. It has been brought to nothing, as Obadiah had prophesied (the entire book of Obadiah, which is only one chapter, records an extended prophecy against Edom). 
 a. The Edomites in Mount Seir: The Edomites also held the rock city of Petra, which can only be reached through a narrow, winding gorge. Petra was so defensible that it was said that a dozen men could protect Petra against a whole army.

b. She bore Amalek to Eliphaz: Notable among this list is Amalek. From him came the Amalekites, notable enemies of Israel (Exodus 17:8-16; Deuteronomy 25:17-19; 1 Samuel 15:1-8).  In addition, the names of the descendants of Esau don’t reflect a godly heart.

·         Amalek    The word עם ('am) forms the compound עמי (ami) meaning either my people (kinsman), or people (kinsman) of.    The verb מלק (malaq) means to nip or wring off the head of a bird with or without severing it from the body. It's used only in Leviticus 1:15 and 5:8.  A primitive root; to crack a joint; by implication to wring the neck of a fowl (without separating it): - [ para romper una articulación; implícitamente a retorcer el cuello de un ave] “blood licker”; dweller in a valley
·         Dishon    =   (Genesis 36:21) means gazelle
·         Alvan      =   (Genesis 36:23) means wicked
·         Ithran     =   (Genesis 36:26) means advantage
·         Aran       =   (Genesis 36:28) means mountain goat
·         Baal-Hanan   =   (Genesis 36:38) - his name embraced the false god Baal.

ABOUT ISHMAEL:
Who are the descendants of Ishmael today?  What role his descendants will play in the end-times prophecy? What is their relationship with Esau? Will they join their forces and ancient hatred against Israel?

Gen 17:20  "As for Ishmael, I have heard you; behold, I will bless him, and will make him fruitful and will multiply him exceedingly. He shall become the father of twelve princes, and I will make him a great nation.

At the age of 14, Ishmael was freed along with his mother. YHVH’s covenant made clear Ishmael was not to inherit Abraham’s house and that Isaac would be the seed of the covenant. Abraham gave him and his mother a supply of bread and water and sent them away. (Gen. 21:14).
The Arabs’ claim to the land of Israel rest entirely on three false assumptions:
1. All Arabs are the descendants of Abraham through Ishmael.
2. Ishmael and his descendants were included in the covenant God made with Abraham.
3. Since the Abrahamic covenant included the land of Israel, the Arabs have a legitimate claim to it.

The Torah is contradicted by the Qur’an at nearly every point.  According to Surah 2:119-121, Abraham and Ishmael did not dwell in tents in Israel but in the city of Mecca in Arabia. Together they rebuilt the Kabah and
placed the black stone in the wall. It was Abraham who started the tradition of an annual pilgrimage to Mecca, throwing stones at the devil, etc. Abraham took Ishmael (not Isaac) to nearby Mt. Moriah to offer as a sacrifice to God.

The 12 princes descendants of Ishmael became 12 nations -  Biblical and Historical facts:
Ishmael’s twelve sons were named Nebaioth, Kedar, Adbeel, Mibsam, Mishma, Dumah, Massa, Hadad, Tema, Jetur, Naphish, and Kedemah. (Gen. 12:11-16) They intermarried with the local population in North
Arabia and produced several nomadic tribes known as the “Ishmaelites.” 

It was prophesied in the Torah that Ishmael and his family would “live to the East of all his brothers.” (Gen. 16:12) “And they settled from Havilah to Shur which is east of Egypt as one goes toward Assyria.” (Gen 25:18) This broad area is the desert section East of Egypt in Northern Arabia toward the kingdom of the Assyrians.   The Ishmaelites are mentioned as a distinct tribe in the Assyrian records. They later intermarried with and were absorbed by the Midianites and other local tribes. In Gen. 37:25-28; 39:1, the Ishmaelites are called the Midianites and in Judges 8:22-24 the Midianites are called the Ishmaelites. The identification cannot be made any stronger.

Arabia was already populated by the descendants of Cush and Shem long before Abraham or Ishmael were born (Gen. 10:7). Their cities and temples have been well documented by archeologists.   If all the Arab people descended from Ishmael as Muhammad claimed, where did all the original Arabs go? What happened to them? Who did Ishmael marry if the Arabs did not already exist? If Arabia was unpopulated, who built Mecca?

We begin to see here how this great deception and lies are part of the end times scenario!  It has been harboring from thousands of years.
To understand this, in Judaism the Arabs are the descendants of Ishmael.  Although most nations, in the Middle East, are Moslems, not all are descendants of Ishmael. For instance, Iranians and Syrians are not descended from Ishmael, but are often referred to as Arabs by westerners.

The real battle is between Judaism and Islam, not Israelis and Arabs as the media would have us believe. It’s a battle between the forces of evil and the heavenly hosts.  It began when the Jewish people rejected Mohammad’s invitation to embrace Islam about 1400 years ago. Today this hatred against Jews comes from the fact that their existence in that land violates a promise by Mohammad that any land conquered in the name of Islam (Alah) would never be regained by its earlier occupants. That’s the real reason why no efforts at forming two independent states, one Jewish and one Palestinian, will ever succeed. Israel cannot be permitted to dwell on land that was once claimed in the name of Islam, according to them.

As for Isaac and Ishmael, there is a minority view among Arabs that as Abraham’s oldest son, Ishmael should have inherited the Promised Land, not Isaac.

The Abrahamic Covenant was given only to Isaac and to his descendants. Ishmael and the other sons of Abraham were explicitly excluded by God from having any part of the covenant made with Abraham. (Gen. 18:18-21)  Therefore the descendants of Ishmael and the other sons of Abraham do not have any claim to the land of Israel because they are not included in the covenant God made with Abraham. Only the Jews have any claim to the land of Israel

ANOTHER FALSE STATEMENT:

Muslims like to claim that Islam give them the right to claim the land of Israel as their own. This claim rests upon two false assumptions:

1. All Arabs are the descendants of Ishmael:  We know that not all Arabs/Muslims are descendants of Ishmael, however HaSatan wants them to believe so, to poison them even more. The stronger their hatred, the bloodiest their war!

2. Muhammad went to Jerusalem: 
This claim is false.  According to the Qur’an and the Hadith, Muhammad had a dream in the middle of the night in which he traveled through the sky, visited seven heavens, met great people like Jesus, and visited Jerusalem. Since this was only a dream, he was never actually in Jerusalem. The Mosque on the temple site in Jerusalem is a hoax built on the lie that Muhammad stood on the site.  Remember they claim ownership in the lands they invade.  Isn’t this what’s happening today in Iraq, Iran and Syria?

Through this study, we can clearly see, how the enemy HaSatan, had been fabricating this great number of  lies and deceptions to instigate, as many nations as he can, to destroy Israel through the same sins he committed:  pride,  desire for power, jealousy, blood hunger, destruction, deception, etc.

Feeding both, the descendants of Esau and Ishmael, on these lies, he is trying to accomplish what has been his vendetta for thousands of years, to destroy the nation YHVH calls His very own, His treasure possession, the apple of His eye.

The enemy is going to bring both Esau and Ishmael’s descendants together to fight against Israel.  I made the attached chart of the descendants of Esau, where you can see that,  Basemath (Ishmael’s daughter), married Esau, therefore her descendants have blood relationship with Esau’s descendants.  They are Amalek’s cousins!   Both, Esau and Ishmael, are holding a grudge and hatred against their younger brothers (Isaac and Jacob).  They were the older brothers (first born) put on a second place, thus making their younger brothers ‘masters’ over them, also inherited the blessings and the Covenant.  In other words, Ishmael wants his first born rights and blessings and so is Esau, who swore to “kill Jacob”.

The spirit of Edom, Amalec and Ishmael is alive today among the nations and more so among the Muslims nations, specially the radical ones like ISIS, ALQAEDA, HAMMAS, etc.  They will play a major role in the final battle!


Amalek in revelation:
Who are this modern day Esau/Edom and Ishmael that come together at the end of days to energize Amalek for a final time? One opinion has it that their final manifestation is found in the other two religions of the world that trace themselves back to Abraham:

 For the rabbis: Esau/Edom symbolized the Roman Empire, and then (after the conversion of Constantine), Christianity. Ishmael was the Arab world and later, Islam.
Another text explains how Esau/Christianity and Ishmael/Islam, though they are against Jacob/Israel, will eventually turn on each other:

Here, at the End of Days, after Israel has already settled on the land of Israel, in the future, the peoples of the world will gather together to conquer Jerusalem. Then will gather together to conquer the land of Israel from the Jews, Gog, the President of [the country] Meshek [which means "Market"] and Tuval from the lands of the North and West who are uncircumcised and called Edom. (Meshek and Tuval are of the descendants of Japheth  [one of the three sons of Noah] that live [now] in Europe, as Josephus has written; there it is also written "Persia and Kush and Put are with them" [Ez. 38:5]). And also [with them will be] the house of Torgama that are all circumcised and adhere to the religion of the Ishmaelite (Islam). But when they come there will be trouble between them, and they will fight each other - that is, Edom and Ishmael will fight against each other because their religions are different. There YHVH will judge them with sword and blood.

Zech.14:3 “Then YHVH will go forth and fight against those nations, as when He fights on a day of battle.”

Joe 3:2  I will gather all the nations And bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat. Then I will enter into judgment with them there on behalf of My people and My inheritance, Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations; and they have divided up My land.

Rev 16:14  for they are spirits of demons, performing signs, which go out to the kings of the whole world, to gather them together for the war of the great day of YHVH, the Almighty.
Each nation who came to destroy Israel will fall into the abyss.  First Egypt, then Assyria, Iran and Elam that hold by Islam. After He will account for Meshek and Tuval and Edom and their kings and princes in the North who are all uncircumcised.   Finally, YHVH Himself will blot the memory of Amalec from the face of the earth forever!

To Esau: Oba 1:10  "Because of violence to your brother Jacob, You will be covered with shame, And you will be cut off forever.

Deu 32:35  'Vengeance is Mine, and retribution, In due time their foot will slip; For the day of their calamity is near, And the impending things are hastening upon them.'


DESCENDANTS OF ESAU/EDOM

Gen 36:1-4  Now these are the records of the generations of Esau (that is, Edom). 2  Esau took his wives from the daughters of Canaan: Adah the daughter of Elon the Hittite, and Oholibamah the daughter of Anah and the granddaughter of Zibeon the Hivite; 3  also Basemath, Ishmael's daughter, the sister of Nebaioth. 4  Adah bore Eliphaz to Esau, and Basemath bore Reuel,

                                                  ARABS


Gen 36:11-12  The sons of Eliphaz were Teman, Omar, Zepho and Gatam and Kenaz.  Timna was a concubine of Esau's son Eliphaz  and she bore Amalek to Eliphaz. These are the sons of Esau's wife Adah.

Gen 36:16  Chief Korah, chief Gatam, chief Amalek. These are the chiefs descended from Eliphaz in the land of Edom; these are the sons of Adah.

The Amalekites existed before Amalek (grandson of Esau). The descendants of Esau's sons are found in the tribe of the Amalekites. The grandson of Esau was probably given the name ‘Amalek’ after one of his ancestors on his mother's side of the family. Make note of the Israelites who were given the names of the non Israelite Arabs.  Children's names are/were given after the relatives or ancestors of either the father OR the mother. Take a look as “Israelites”  named after Hittites, Havites, Moabites, Syrians, Chaldeans, Ammorites ... the books of numbers and chronicles are one of the first place to track them.

We are not the product of any single ancestor but we are the product of every ancestor we ever had. Abraham, Isaac and Jacob were contributors in the ancestors of the Israelites.  Jacob was the only ancestor that, through him, YHVH made them Israelites – named by YHVH Himself!

Gen 35:9-10  “Then YHVH appeared to Jacob again when he came from Paddan-aram, and He blessed him.  YHVH said to
him,"Your name is Jacob; You shall no longer be called Jacob, But Israel shall be your name." Thus He called him Israel.”

 Where does Abraham come from?  He was not a Jew!!  The Israelites were a composite of every ancestor they ever had and every ancestor they ever had was, most likely, descendants from the area of Mesopotamia.  Abraham was from Ur of the Chaldeans (modern day Irak).

As you track the descendants of Esau in the tribes of the Amalekites and Edomites, know that those Amalekites and Edomites are also descendants of Abraham.

In conclusion:    Arabs of today, including the radical ones, are descendants of Ishmael and Esau.  As you can see, through
The Scriptures, they were holding a grudge against their brothers (Isaac and Jacob).  Both were the older- first born brothers that were put on a second place, while their younger brothers took the blessing and inheritance of the Covenant of YHVH ~ The Chosen people of
YHVH.  The “spirit of Esau/Ishmael/Amalek” is, still today, against their brother Ya’akov - the nation of Yisra’el.  Due to this ancient hatred, their descendants continue to swear, the destruction and annihilation of Israel.  That ancient vendetta, instilled by the enemy, is what we’re seeing today!  This war will go on until the return of Messiah where He will wage war.

Rev 19:11-13  “And I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse, and He who sat on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and wages war.  12  His eyes are a flame of fire, and on His head are many diadems; and He has a name written on Him which no one knows except Himself. 13  He is clothed with a robe dipped in blood, and His name is called The Word of God.”

Rev 22:20  He who testifies to these things says, "Yes, I am coming quickly." Amen. Come, Yahshua”.


BARUCH HABA B’SHEM YHVH – BLESSED IS HE WHO COMES IN THE NAME OF YHVH!
